[QUOTE="mww982, post: 2855572, member: 127069"] I saw your previous post on the .223 either on here or Rokslide. I'm looking at the X-Bolt Speed SR in .223, browning shows a twist rate of 8, is that good for a bullet weight about 62gr.? I was leaning towards the 6.5 but the overwhelming majority has said the .223 over the 6.5, so kind of torn now. Right now, it pretty much looks like the X-Bolt Speed SR is the only .223 I can find from Browning, used or new. It has a sporter barrel, was wanting either a heavy sporter or bull barrel for a practice gun. I can find that in a 6.5, plus with a break or eventual surpressor I figured the recoil would be pretty tame. [/QUOTE]
